a vegetarian lentil casserole?
I’m trying to find a recipe I knew a few years ago, but now I can’t find it in my home or on the internet. I know its main ingredients were lentils and basmati rice, and I baked it in a casserole dish. It had onion and maybe two cloves of garlic. I think it also had either tomato sauce or a tomato paste that was barely noticeable but just enough, after the casserole baked. I used to put vegetarian crumbles on top, or shredded cheese, if I wasn’t making it for any vegans. does anyone know of anything like this, or at least how to reconstruct it if I can remember all the ingredients?

Place the rice and 1 cup water in a pot, and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer 20 minutes. Place lentils in a pot with the remaining 1 1/2 cups water, and bring to a boil. Cook 15 minutes, or until tender.
